Speech [suppressed by the previous question] of Mr. John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts, on the Removal of the Public Deposites, and Its Reasons.

Financial transactions and the functions and deeds of a banking structure were areas of concern to the United States in the early years of the 19th Century. The Speech [suppressed by the previous question] of Mr. John Quincy Adams, of Massachusetts, on the Removal of the Public Deposites, and Its Reasons was supposed to be presented to the House of Representatives, but because of some chicanery in the House (as alluded to by the phrase "suppressed by the previous question" in the title), Mr. Adams could not present the speech. He therefore published it, and distributed it, as this pamphlet.

The pamphlet contains 43 pages that measures approximately 5 ½ x 9 inches. The pages are tanned, with light occasional foxing, but the text is clear and easily read. The pamphlet is a first edition, as printed in Washington by Gales and Seaton in 1834.
